    Hello Eddie Thwan,

    There is different manual methods available to move PST files into EDB format. You can easily transfer Outlook files to Exchange account using Powershell Commands manually. But before describing the commands, Can you please share the version of Exchange account you are using?

    Thanks

    Hello Eddie,

    A simple manual solution to transfer .pst files into an Exchange account is briefly described below.
    You can follow these steps easily.

    1. Log in to your Exchange account (as administrator).
    2. Click on Exchange Server Manager > Target database > Properties > Security
    3. Add Exchange Recovery Administrators group and allow full access & control permissions on the database.
    4. In Exchange Bin directory > copy the ExMerge setup file & ExMerge.ini file.
    5. Now run ExMerge.exe and click Next.
    6. Click on Procedure Selection > Extract or Import > Next > Import data into an Exchange Server Mailbox > Next.
    7. In Destination Server page > Enter Exchange Server name
    8. On Import Procedure > choose any one option: Copy, Merge, Replace.
    9. Chose the advanced options to select Folder, Date range and click Next.
    10. Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Merge Wizard > Mailbox Selection > choose the file to import.
    11. Choose the desired option in Locale Selection > Next.
    12. Browse > select folder contains PST files.
    13. Click Next > Save Settings option.
    14. Hit on Next > when the process gets completed > Finish.

    Hope this will help you to solve your issue.

    Regards,
    Michael

    Hello guys,

    I have tried the above manual method in my Exchange server 2013 account. But it didn’t work well for me. Maybe since I am not that proficient in Exchange Server. Can you please suggest some other easy methods that I can follow quickly.

    Thanks in advance,
    Eddie

    Hello,

    As the Experts told, there are the different manual solution to move files in .pst format into Exchange EDB. But they are time consuming and lengthy. It may get complicated if the user does not technically sound good. It would be advisable to use third party software in such cases. So I would like to suggest a product that I have used many times before. SysTools Exchange Import Tool is one of the best available application to import PST files to Exchange Server 2013 and all other versions.

    Thanks and regards,
    Mariya

    Thank you, your proposal is very appreciable, because I have tried Exchange Import software. It worked well for me. I was able to migrate all my files in one go. It solved the issue in few minutes.

    Thanks & Regards
    Eddie
